Double Feature

A great Neo-realist double feature: the first is Roberto Rossellini's raw epic of the liberation of Rome featuring Anna Magnani (left); the second is Vittorio de Sica's quietly powerful study of old age with Carlo Battisti (right). (KCET Saturday at 9 p.m., 10:45 p.m.)

Actress Brooke Adams is used to being on one side of the camera. But during a recent visit to the set of the TV series "Monk," which stars her husband Tony Shalhoub, Adams found herself behind the lens instead. The crew was on location at an old Italian villa in the California wine country and the light was just right, Adams recalls, so she snapped a photograph.
